I can only imagine what Jamie's inbox looks like this morning

Wonder if he's got more emails about the halftime show or the 3000 people standing in the parquet for the last 8 minutes of game time.

Next time, instead of throwing frisbees to the dogs, maybe they should consider starving the dogs for ten days, have the "magicians" do their act slathered in BBQ sauce & then release the dogs onto the floor two minutes into the act?

My husband suggested a solution of sorts for that. Send a fire marshal through, tell them to find a seat or exit to the outer concourse. And ENFORCE it. :)

They were so damn awkward and unfunny.

ISU could've just done different variations of the Applebee's/Allied shuffles for 15 mins and people would've been happier. I'll never understand why people eat those shuffle games up, but props to the kid on the screen who was holding up four fingers while the 3 apple shuffle was going on.

Why? Not exactly sure what the problem is. We effectively get 3000 people closer to the court making more noise for the end of games.

At least half the people standing in the concourse are from the parquet which is moving them further from the court. Also, the people standing there aren't exactly cheering or making much noise.

In retrospect, I may have misunderstood his post. I thought he was talking about all the people that left the parquet seating early and make it look empty. Then they all cram into the inside concourse to watch the rest of the game. They get a 15 second lead on getting to their cars that way.

The people from up above do it too, but you can't see the upper decks on TV.

I was sitting by a family with younger kids that was not happy with the "we want to get off" and when the guy let it slip and said "sh-t".

I believe one guy also said, "Jesus ******, we're going to do it; it's called showmanship." when he got booed for backing out of shooting the first time. Just not the time or place for their type of "humor".

I'm not sure where all you guys get off being critical of the halftime acts. I'm sure you could all do better.... :jimlad:

This - been an "issue" for years. But, they HAVE to be the first one out to their cars!

Nope.

Correct.
